The Glimpse

There are only a few things I am sure about from that morning. I remember most vividly the moment when I got a look at the thing. I was shin-deep in the Henry’s Fork, water reflecting the sun, my rod skyward and arching, the line pulled tight. The fish moved out of the seam and swam exposed for a millisecond. I got my glimpse.

It was only a moment, but there was one feature I could not miss. This fish was . . . big. I know that is a poor adjective. No self-respecting writer should lean on a word so plain and monosyllabic. But I find myself returning to that irreplaceable description: big. When I got my glimpse, the word rose in my mind and surfaced: “Oh my, that’s a big fish.”
